Donating YT 2000 Club Member | Going home at 6 weeks.... I just read an ad in my area for pups that where born 3 days before mine and they are letting them go before Christmas. This make me so mad. I feel like going getting them all. They could care less about these pups.. they are just out for some Christmas cash. I just pray the new owners know something about yorkies. I emailed the lady selling them and tried to inform her nicely.. the email she sent me back was not as nice as I tried to be..

| Doesn't it just make you sick, then you go and try to inform the people and they get pissy! All about the money, not the well being of the puppies.

| at 6 weeks? That is awful and scary! If she sent you a rude email in return she is a hopeless case. To bad you can't place an add saying not to purchase from her. Or maybe you can

| That is horrible!! Poor little puppies!! It some states it is actually illegal to sell puppies under 8 weeks old, you may want to check into that if you haven't already.

| You know- I got my first Yorkie when he was 6 weeks old and at the time I had NO IDEA that it was wrong.... but now I want to call the breeder and yell at her! haha. I remember taking my new 6 weeks old puppy to the vet and they could not believe that the breeder had let me take him.... I had to give him sugar water and carry around NutriCal with me everywhere because he was only .75 pounds..... he was so so so TINY!!! I got my new Puppy Lucy from a wonderful breeder and she almost wouldn't let me take her at 12 weeks. I had to beg her It is so often about the money, which is sad sad sad. |

| I just had my first litter of Biewers, and I can now talk from experience, anybody sending a puppy to his new home at 6 weeks are COMPLETELY CRAZY. Mine only really started playing and interacting with each other at 7 weeks old. I do not understand how anybody would want to miss seeing them running and playing. It is the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. |

| So sad that some 'breeders' (I use that term very loosely) put money before the well-being of the pups they have brought into the world
